Chapter 1171: Ghost Saint Nation 132 >
o much thought and effort into this, and now that she had come this far, she could only bear it.Shu Taifei looked into her eyes, seeing the coldness within. She knew that since entering the palace, sh..."Fourteen is foolish."
Xiaoli's eyes were red from crying. She had spent a lot of time with them, fourteen or fifteen years, and their relationship was deep. Now that they were all gone, she was truly heartbroken.
"Yeah, too stupid."
She would rather rebel fourteen times, at least she is still alive.
"Your Highness, actually what Fourteenth did was just not wanting to confront the Queen. This servant feels sad, but admires her courage. If it were this servant, this servant would also act like Fourteenth and never surrender."
"Silly."
Feng Lingxi roared, his voice sharp. Looking at Xiao Li's stubborn face, his eyes were piercing, "If you encounter such a situation, I would rather you betray me than have you die. As long as your heart is with me, even if your body is not here, I will not blame you."
"I can't possibly serve others." Xiaoli bit her lip, tears streaming down her face. "Isn't death just a matter of course Life and death are predetermined. I would rather die than betray the Princess Consort."
Feng Lingxi looked at her resolute eyes, tears streaming down her face, yet she remained stubbornly determined.
"Stupid girl, you value your life so much."
Xiaoli looked at the worry in the Queen's eyes and nodded, looking at the Queen, "Then what shall we do now Besides the maidservants, there are no other Yao people by your side."
"The Yao people are probably all under Luoli's control. I, the so-called Saint Lord, am nothing but a figurehead."
Feng Lingxi took off the purple star necklace from her neck, "This thing has been with me, perhaps it's the only one who can accompany me."
"Your Highness, this Zi Xing might not be important to you, but it must be incredibly meaningful to them. I believe it's best to preserve and cherish this item."
"Just do as you please, these Yao Clan matters, let nature take its course. Besides my mother, I don't need any of this."
What kind of Saint Lord of the Yao clan, what kind of treasure, she has hands and feet, wants something, can't rely on her own two hands to earn it, with a skill by her side, how could she not have the ability to survive.
"Your Majesty."
The butler's voice came from the doorway. Feng Lingxi nodded to Xiaoli, signaling for her to open the door.
The steward was a little surprised to see it was Xiao Li who opened the door, but he quickly smiled and said, "Your Highness, General Zhen Guo requests an audience."
“Lord of the State Feng Aotian”
The steward smiled and nodded. Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli, her eyes inquiring when this Feng Aotien arrived here again.
"Tell him to wait in the hall, I'll be there shortly."
The steward responded and left. Looking at his back, Feng Lingxi felt a little strange. Why did the steward personally come to report when Feng Aotian arrived
"Xiao Li, go get my crossbow and secure it. From now on, whenever you're with me, always be on high alert."
Feng Lingxi ordered that her Qing He's husband, Zhang You, should be the deputy manager. Since she woke up, she had never seen Zhang You and his daughter.
Now that I think about it, this blessing charm might be faulty.
After re-dressing, Feng Lingxi brought Xiao Li to the front hall and saw Feng Aotian. Feng Lingxi was a little surprised.
"So it really is the General Zhen Guo, my apologies."
Feng Ling Xi walked past, Feng Ao Tian stood up and bowed, his face lacked the sharp severity, instead there were a few more traces of vicissitudes. His clothes were covered in dust, and there was mud by his shoes, his lips slightly pale. This change was somewhat unexpected for Feng Ling Xi.
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess, I'm here today because I truly have something important to tell you."
Wind Lingxi looked at the housekeeper beside her, "Housekeeper, go and ask Zhang You to come over and serve. Also, Housekeeper, please accompany me to the market apothecary's place. Ask the doctor to come to the garden of our house, I have something to discuss with them."
"Yes."
The butler glanced at Feng Aotian before withdrawing.
"How could the General of National Protection come to me here this time"
Feng Aotien looked at Feng Lingxi, clasped his hands together, and spoke with a hint of pleading in his voice.
"Princess Consort of the Chen, I know you hate me to the core, but this time, I hope you'll help us for the sake of the people."
"For the common people"
Feng Aotian nodded, "Your Highness should know of Tumuzhen a hundred miles outside. It's not too far from here and is the border between the Great Yuan Dynasty and Dongtai Kingdom."
"I'm not very familiar with this generation. General Zhen Guo just came to say hello."
I have been ordered to attack Dongtai, but I don't know what means they used. The 100,000 troops under my command unfortunately fell ill. Now, the people in Tu Mu Town are also becoming infected, and the doctors there can't figure out what the illness is. If this continues, Tu Mu Town will be lost, and the Dongtai army will occupy the city.
"You mean to say that your attack on the Eastern Kingdom failed, and you were instead outmaneuvered, framed, and now your soldiers are sick. Desperate, you've come crawling to me"
Feng Lingxi's eyes were sharp, and from the moment she saw him, she knew he was ill.
Feng Aotian looked at Feng Lingxi, "Among the people I know, only your medical skills are the best, and besides, you live closest to Tu Mu Town. As long as you're willing, you can reach Tu Mu Town within a day. Even if the court sends reinforcements, it will take at least ten days."
"Won't the court dispatch troops nearby"
"I looked, but couldn't figure out what the symptoms were."
Feng Ling Xi grasped Feng Ao Tian's hand, checked his pulse, and her eyes were complex.
"Do you know that you are sick"
Feng Aotian nodded, “I know. After being infected with this disease, you’ll just have a cough for three to five days. Then, you’ll feel weak all over, develop red rashes on your body, and then blisters will appear. Finally, they will ooze pus and bloody fluid…”
After bleeding, it is unbearably itchy, and you can't help but scratch it. When that happens, the skin breaks down, and the pain is unbearable until it resolves on its own.
Feng Aotian nodded, watching Feng Lingxi speak word for word, just like everyone else present.
"What's wrong with me"
Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Aotian, "You go down to bathe and change your clothes first. Change all of them and burn them. After you're done, come find me in the garden."
Feng Lingxi finished speaking and looked at Xiao Li behind her, "Take him down and keep your distance."
Xiao Li responded with a nod, looking at Feng Aotian, "General Zhen Guo, please."
Feng Aotian watched Feng Lingxi leave, wanting to call her back, but Feng Lingxi had already walked far away.
"So, Your Highness the Princess Consort, have you agreed or not"
"The General still needs to follow the princess's wishes first."
Xiaoli reminded, having followed the princess for so many years, when had she seen the princess treat Feng Aotiantian like this The illness in this Tumu Town must be extraordinary. Otherwise, the princess wouldn't be so cautious.
Feng Aotian followed Xiao Li down, and a figure in the darkness watched Feng Lingxi's departing back, sneaking away.
Feng Lingxi arrived at the garden, Zhang You was already waiting for her. Seeing Feng Lingxi, Zhang You hurried forward to greet her.
"I have met the Princess."
Feng Lingxi looked around, "Zhang Yu, has the steward gone out"
Zhang You nodded, but his eyes glanced toward the spot behind Feng Lingxi, hinting at something.
"There's an illness in Tǔmù Town, and I need to go there. I require someone to accompany me on this journey. Would you be willing to go with me"
Zhang You heard the footsteps following him, somewhat unexpectedly.
"My lady, of course I am willing. But I wonder if I can bring Yue'er with me"Lingxi leading Wan'er by the hand, whispering something to her, and Wan'er giggled incessantly."Xier, Wan'er!"Dugu Cheng rushed over and hugged Feng Lingxi. Wan'er's smile immediately vanished.The sud...
